Cameron Cope is a directionless and closeted teenager who, with his best friend Ray, join a diverse group of recruits in the 1990s US Marine Corps during a time when being gay in the military was illegal.

Together they navigate the literal and metaphorical landmines of boot camp, forging unlikely bonds and discovering their true selves in an environment designed to push them to their limits.

Inspired by Greg Cope White's memoir "The Pink Marine."
